This is a rebuild of the antithesis of Tailwind on Tailwind. Bootstrap had this for decades (Daisy even copies the same semantic class names in some cases). Tailwind was supposed to break away from this, to specific actual styles directly, but looks like we're coming back full circle again. Why not just use Bootstrap?
Readit NewsPreface:
I accidentally mixed up Tailwind and DaisyUI in my brain. The commenter above me is talking about Tailwind and my "Previous Comment" is responding by talking about DaisyUI but accidentally also using the word Tailwind.
For previous versions of DaisyUI my main complaint was that it looked childish. V5 fixed this. I misread the parent comment as if they were talking about this same issue. My bad.
Previous comment:
I'm not sure when you most recently used Tailwind, but V5 is a big improvement on V4. 4 definitely looked somewhat childish. 5 corrected most/all of this.
How does the version of Tailwind itself make difference? The look depends on what styles are applied using Tailwind, not the ability to specify styles. Think the problem is the most tailwind sites have a similar set of styles applied, most likely copies of the docs or examples. TailwindUI is a paid system, but yeah, could be a case of most of the defaults copying that.

From my own experience with whisper.cpp, normalizing the audio and removing silence not only shortens the process time significantly, but also increases a lot the quality of the transcription, as silence can mean hallucinations. You can do that graphically with Audacity too, if you do not want to deal with the command line. You also do not need any special hardware to run whisper.cpp, with the small model literally any computer should be able to do it if you can wait a bit (less than the audio length).
One half interesting / half depressing observation I made is that at my workplace any meeting recording I tried to transcribe in this way had its length reduced to almost 2/3 when cutting off the silence. Makes you think about the efficiency (or lack of it) of holding long(ish) meetings.
If a human meeting had lot of silence (assuming it's between words and not before / after), I would consider it a very efficient meeting where there was just enough information exchanged with adequate absorption, processing and response time.

Please ask the agent to help write a workflow script (GitHub Actions yaml or makefile or similar) instead of using it as a runner - if you do that the release pipeline changes with each execution. You do not want a non deterministic release pipeline that's mostly correct. You want one that's checked in to version control and always does exactly the same thing, with all logs and artefacts recorded.
By all means use whatever AI agent you have to help set that up.

It definitely feels like a bug to me, and would be the first thing I'd turn off. I mean, I get that from that one angle it looks flat -- but the sun moving with my camera would be way, way worse for me.
It depends on your perspective. If you internalize God mode, where you spin your disk world while leaving the sun in place, it's very intuitive.
> The biggest problem: developers don’t want GPUs. They don’t even want AI/ML models. They want LLMs. System engineers may have smart, fussy opinions on how to get their models loaded with CUDA, and what the best GPU is. But software developers don’t care about any of that. When a software developer shipping an app comes looking for a way for their app to deliver prompts to an LLM, you can’t just give them a GPU.
I'm increasingly coming to the view that there is a big split among "software developers" and AI is exacerbating it. There's an (increasingly small) group of software developers who don't like "magic" and want to understand where their code is running and what it's doing. These developers gravitate toward open source solutions like Kubernetes, and often just want to rent a VPS or at most a managed K8s solution. The other group (increasingly large) just wants to `git push` and be done with it, and they're willing to spend a lot of (usually their employer's) money to have that experience. They don't want to have to understand DNS, linux, or anything else beyond whatever framework they are using.
A company like fly.io absolutely appeals to the latter. GPU instances at this point are very much appealing to the former. I think you have to treat these two markets very differently from a marketing and product perspective. Even though they both write code, they are otherwise radically different. You can sell the latter group a lot of abstractions and automations without them needing to know any details, but the former group will care very much about the details.
This is context based dichotomy, not a person-based one.
In my personal life, I’m curiosity-oriented, so I put my blog, side projects and mom’s chocolate shop on fully self hosted VPSs.
At my job managing a team of 25 and servicing thousands of customers for millions in revenue, I’m very results-oriented. Anyone who tries to put a single line of code outside of a managed AWS service is going to be in a lot of trouble with me. In a results-oriented environment, I’m outsourcing a lot of devops work to AWS, and choosing to pay a premium because I need to use the people I hire to work on customer problems.
Trying to conflate the two orientations with mindsets / personality / experience levels is inaccurate. It’s all about context.

Great story, and a thought-provoking title. I LLOLed at "We’ll just tell Steve you did move."
I'm 45, so I'll mark my 2nd quarter-century in the not-too-distant future.
Very approximately, so far:
0-25: learning
25-50: doing
50-75: TBD
Old Hindu philosphies have a similar split.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%80%C5%9Brama_(stage)
0-25y grow and study
25-50y develop your household, your family, your community and gain wealth (non-extractive, provide value).
50y-75y hand over all worldly things to the next generation, advise, teach and help those around you. Focus on your spiritual enlightenment.
75y- renounce the world and disappear into the forest as a monk / hermit.
sudhirj commented on Server-Sent Events (SSE) Are Underrated igorstechnoclub.com/serve... · Posted by u/Igor_Wiwi
I had a similar issue at one point but if I remember correctly I just had to have my webserver send the header section without closing the connection.
Usually things would just get streamed through but for some reason until the full header was sent the proxy didn't forward and didn't acknowledge the connection.
Not saying that is your issue but definitely was mine.
Not entirely. If a load balancer is set to buffer say 4kb of data all the time, your SSE is stuck until you close the connection.
I think there is a HTTP/2 flush instruction, but no load balancer is obligated to handle it and your SSE library might not be flushing anyway.
There is a case to be made that they sold a multiple and are changing x or rate limiting x differently, but the tone seems different from that.
